Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

"Huh? Humans can transform into fishes in this world?" Blue asked almost unbelieving of what was being said.

"That's right," Ning said. "Or more exactly aquatic beasts. Did you think I let a couple of the fishes go away without fighting them just because I was being generous?"

"Oh… those were humans?" Blue asked.

"Yes," Ning said. "Although I did leave out a couple of intelligent fishes too. I only killed the ones that weren't intelligent enough and were acting merely on instinct."

"I see," Blue said. "But how is it possible? How can humans turn into fishes?"

"How can beasts turn into humans?" Ning asked Blue.

"Well that's… that's because we reach the Spirit Transformation realm, which is why we get to transform," Blue said.

"Spirit Transform realm merely merges your soul and body, allowing them to be malleable enough to forge into whatever is deemed necessary to survive in that world. You could turn into a human because the land of Kumia deemed it to be the best survival case for everyone. These people turn into aquatic beasts because this world deems it to be the best case for survival for everyone," Ning said.

"I see," Blue said. "So I will be able to turn to a fish too in this world?"

"What are you saying?" Ning asked. "You're already an aquatic beast. What more would you need to survive in this world?"

"Oh, right. I thought everyone would turn into fishes," Blue said.

"Fish, Squid, Octopus, whatever you need to be to survive in this world," Ning said.

"So, we are going to see Anya who…" Blue inquired.

"She's turned into a beast more certainly and is living in the depths of the ocean,"  Ning said. "Due to how small most lands are and how devoid of spirit veins they are, no one really wants to live on the surface."

"I see," Blue said. "Wait, how do human children even survive here? They would die, won't they?"

Ning couldn't help but chuckle at the question. "It's a do-or-die world, buddy. The human women can stay pregnant for a much longer amount of time, but in that time, the child must reach a minimum of Spirit Transformation realm for it to survive."

"Woah!" Blue was not expecting that answer at all. "Can they even do it? How does a child reach that high of a cultivation base without being able to cultivate? It's just a fetus after all."

"Don't worry, this world has thought of that as well," Ning said. "Otherwise humanity would have gone extinct eons ago."

"Hmm, I'm really curious about it now," Blue said.

"I believe you will see it very soon now," Ning said. "You can start diving actually. Start heading towards the depths of the ocean and we will reach there."

"Understood!"

Blue took a dive, delving deep into the cold water where vision slowly disappeared. Due to how deep the ocean was, at some point, there was no longer any light visible around them.

Fortunately, as cultivators, they didn't need much light to see anything. Not only did they have their divine sense, but they also could see incredibly well with almost no light at all.

Blue could see perfectly and he kept going downward, per Ning's instruction.

As they went deeper and deeper, almost 10 kilometers into the seafloor, the light in the sky was anything but completely gone. At this point, even Blue started to hesitate to trust his eyes and was using his senses.

However, just a little bit forward, he saw light coming from not far away from him. "Master, there's something there," he said proudly.

"Yes, that's where we are going," Ning replied, not with his voice, but by simply creating sound through his body.

Suddenly, something entered Blue's senses. A bunch of beasts came rushing at them at incredible speed, ready to attack them.

The group consisted of some fish, octopus, sea horse, jellyfish, and even a giant starfish. They all prepared for battle, but when they saw Ning on top of Blue, they paused.

"Stop!" the starfish at the front shouted at them and Blue slowed down. He realized that the fish in front of him was nearly an Immortal King.

"Greetings brother," Blue spoke up.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?" the starfish asked. He spoke to Blue, but his eyes were on Ning who was somehow this deep in the ocean without seemingly holding his breath at all.

"We are here to meet a woman that goes by the name of Anya," Blue said.

The starfish lowered its guard slightly. "You know Anya?" the starfish asked.

"Yes, we do," Blue said. "I am a long-time friend of hers and this person on top of me is her master."

The starfish found it hard to believe, but then how else would they know Anya lived in this place?

"May we enter?" Ning finally spoke.

"Sure, but please turn to your fish form," the starfish asked.

"I'm sorry, but I have no fish form. I only just recently arrived in this world after all," Ning said.

The starfish frowned. "Alright then, I hope you can go on for long without any air down here," he said.

"Don't worry about that," Blue spoke. "Something like being out of breath won't kill my master."

"I see," Starfish said. He turned to his group and told them to be on guard while the two of them were taken in.

Until they confirmed with Anya, however, they were practically prisoners being shown around the town.

Ning got off of Blue and finally swam on his own, going towards a certain building where he had already found his little disciple.

When they arrived, one of the people guarding them went inside and called Anya. A beautiful seahorse came rushing outside to see if it was true.

The moment she saw Ning, she couldn't help but shout out loud. "Master! Blue! You are really here."

Ning saw her and smiled. "You are not the same Anya I remember."
